Well organized; sufficient in depth discussion for a practical book; covers important subjects ; and comes with several examples in each section along with the referred masonry code clause . While it is a good reference for practical engineers; it can also be useful for graduate students; a possibility the senior undergraduate students who are interested in this subject.Also the author provides a comprehensive coverage of required material for those engineers who plan to pass the professional exam.The only negative points are: as a practical reference; the presentation and indeed the number of detailing is not enough. Detailing is a very important part of masonry design which is not covered sufficiently in this book.The second negative point is lack of enough explanation and design example for masonry parts which are known as architectural elements. These elements are not review well.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. COMPLETE AND THOROUGHBy Pepp ErfieldI am a Civil Engineer with experience in design and construction of masonry structures. This book ilustrates in a thorough way how to design with the state-limit strength method (in opposite to the traditional Allowed Stress Design).It has plenty of design examples and it illustrates the design of walls; beams; columns (masonry columns); etc.This is a must be for a structural designer.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
